    Summary

    “—and I know that there’s Becca and Tanner and Millie to consider, but I was wondering if you maybe wanted to move in? Together? With me?”

    Mel blinks. He certainly doesn’t look like he’s having a stroke.

    “Frank, why would we move in together?”

    “I thought it might be nice,” he shrugs here, acting nonchalant even though Mel can see the tension in his jaw. “To take that next step in our relationship.”

    “Frank, what are you talking about? We’re not in a relationship?”

    At this, Frank’s frown deepens before widening into a frustrated half smile. “Uh, yes we are? We’ve been dating for nine months?”

    What.

     

    Or, Frank thinks Mel doesn’t do physical touch.
    Or, Mel doesn’t realize they’ve been dating for nine months.

    Summary

    She keeps her head down, focuses on work and Becca and studying for boards, and all the time, she’s thinking of Emily.

    Mel had thought she was so pretty and cool, the first time Dad brought her to dinner. Emily wasn’t the only guest—there had been at least two other grad students invited, too, but Mel only remembers Emily’s red-brown hair tumbling over her shoulders, the hazel eyes that looked almost as big as an anime character’s, the way she talked with her hands about the Victorian novels that lined the bookshelves in Dad’s study. After dinner, Mel and Becca had agreed that Emily looked like a Disney princess, and when Becca said something about it a few days later to Mom, Mel didn’t understand why Mom’s laughter was brittle.

    Summary

    Mel was mystified. She'd never even met Frank. 'You don't know him. You've never met-' She stopped head. Mel had been trying to get them together. Since his return to the Pitt post rehab he'd become one of her closest friends. Best friend even. Several times she'd tried to get them together. Frank had been really excited. But Becca had either other plans or been sick when she'd tried.

    Becca had lied to her.

    Summary

    Langdon looks aghast. “What do you mean you haven’t seen Lord of the Rings?”
    “I mean, it’s not intentional,” says Mel. “I just never got around to it. Plus, it does look kind of goofy – isn’t the villain an evil spotlight?”
    Garcia laughs, but Langdon looks like she just shot his mother right in front of him.
